From all we can learn, our citizens
wAo, last evening, attended the lecture
room Of the Y. NJ. @. A. to hear Congress
man Mckinley, must have been greatly
disappointed.
As young gentleman said who was
there: "The Majors remarks were dis
cursive and diffusiVs. Indeed he was
dry and unlnteresting. The Msj'r
claimed he himself for ten years
had acted on the reform civil
service rules In ordering competitive
examinations for Wes. Point and the
Naval School at Annapolis. or course,
however, our N. G. did not give the nu'
raerous instances where he did not re
gard rules OF equity and fsiruess-in
other appointments. In fact, Civil Ser
vice did not engage the Major over if
teen or twenty minutes during the hour
and quarter that he held forth"
1t seems the Major gave no special
credit to Pres dent Cleveland for his
course on civil service matters.

THE Republican Senate Of New York
at Albany is stern body Of partlaans.
The Republican members refuse to con-
flTm Governor Hills appointments, the
latest refussIs. s.being Col. Fred. Grant
as Quarantine Commissioner, and Gen.
Daniel Sickles as Emigration Commits
siOner, and all this, too, when both gen.
tIemen were endorsed by monster psti-
tlons from Grand Army Posts.
These same partisan Republican Sem
atOrs had previously refused to confirm
Michael RickRrd as Railroad Commits
sloner, though endorsed by the Brother
hood Of Locomotive Engineers. They
had also snubbed the Granger sssocls-
tlOns by rejecting Mr.. Armstrong and
the Knights OF Labor, by refusing Mr..
Buckbee. Other rej9ctions have taken
place. Governor Hill has succeeded In
compelling these gentlemen to show
their hands, at all events. They
must be hard to please, and very big

SLAVES IN MOTT STREET.

Two wealthy Chines0 merchants ACcuBeu

All Chan and KwoDg Hing Lung, rich
Chinese shop. keepers Of Mott street, are
still subjects Of the Emperor Of China,
and are not particularly we'll Versed In
he laws and customs Of the country,
except those which relate to money get
ting and m0ney-keeping. It is supposed
that they have not enlightened their
Oriental Intelligence with the fact that
f)r good many years now slave-0wn-
ing has not been looked upon with favor
by legally constituted authOri y In the
United States. Any way, All Chan and
KwOng Hing Lung are said to be full
Il dyed slave owners. Ah Chan, who
does business at No. 8 Mott street, and
lives at No. IA, has an eleven-year-0ld
Chinese girl slave, whom ne bought two
years ago for 800. he values her now
at $500. She Is very small for her age,
and not at all preDOssessing In appear
ance. She does all the household work
for Ah Chan and his family, which con-
sists Of Mrs. Chan and two children.
She can be seen almost every day sour
rying about on errands be- ween All
Chan's store and his house.
KwOng Hing Lung, who lives on the
top floor Of No. 4, has another slave girl.
She Is thirteen years old and dressee in
the regular costume of q Chinese dOmes-
tic. Mr.. Lung paid $3.50 for her In Can
ton two or three years ago, but he
wouldn't sell her now for less than $500.
Mr.. Lung has wife and one child. The
slave does all their drudgeTy. Lung
owns No. 10 Mott street, and has an In.
terest In No. l8. All Chan owns No 8
A World reporter hunted mp KwOng
Hing Lung yesterday and asked him
what he thought about the propriety Of
holding slave in q country where
slavery had been abolished. He ssid
that he was not an American and that
1t was the custom In China to buy and
sell whom be pleased, even the prettiest
girl or boy in China. If he had money
and II their parents or guardians want
ed to dispose Of their children he would
buy them.
Suppose the authorities here make
ycu give up your slave. WhaE would
you do thenp"
How he prove me have slsvep Me
can say me hire him from China" twit-
tered the almond eyed millionaire.
But the girl said she has had no
money from you for the past two years,
nor the knowledge Of any ever sent to
her folks In China. How are you going
to prove she did get wages from your"
'0h, me no talkee you no mo-. You
gop was Mr.. Lungs emphatic remark
to this.
Ah Chan refused to say anything
about the matter, but intimsted In his
soft Mott street patOis that what he did
In his own house was strictly his own
business. The Mott street Cinnamon
who were asked about All Chan and
Kwong Hing Lungs human possessions
didn't seem at all surprised that a rich
man should own people. A rich China.
man can do about as he likes anyway.
The poorer shirt-scrubbers of his nation
hold q pleasant theory that wealth
means immunity from any kind Of
crime.

The loss Of life by the burning of the
Paris Theatre on Wednesday night ia
fully one hundred and fifty people. The

cOrpses were found floating In five feet

IT was thought when Governor Hill,
Of New York, nominated Colonel +. D.
Grant for Quarantine Commissioner and
General Daniel e. slCkles for Emigra

something for the soldiers. Nearly all
the Grand Army Posts In the State sent
in petitions asking their confirmation,
but they were thrown into the waste
basket, and the nominees were rejected
by strictly party vote Of 13 to7

liz the Democracy nominate by popu'
lar vote this year, let the work be fairly
done. One of the counties that nOmin-
ates by popular vote is Crawford In this
State. The central committee Of that
county designates certain day for
primary, or rather nominating, election.
Each township, ward or voting precinct
appoints two judges and one clerk. One
Judge from each voting precinct Is
made q delegate sndAthe other an alter
nate to the county convention. The
votes received by each candidate for the
various. offices are counted and returnt d
to the convention. The. candidate re-
ceiving the highest number Of votes at
the primary election is declared by the
convention as the nominee Of the party.
A. B. is q candidate, say, for county
commissioner. He announces his name,
gets his tickets printed and Of course
goes around electiOneerlng among his
friends. On his ticket are all the
names Of the candidates, excepting
those Of his competitors for the same
Office.
The popular vote system requires
work and expense, but In q county like
Crawford, where nomination is equal
to an election, very little more expenses
are incurred.
